foetal Ixliscel?aii?. Give rt Kind Word to the Erring. Give a kind word to the erring It inuy raise a fallon brother ! Aud tho law of heaven teaches Wo should kindly teach each other. Ah ! the piths of vice are many ; And when tempted and when tried, Rcmembtr thouart mortal, And thy fi:-it may turn aside. (?ire a kiud word to tho erring, Who have trod thc paths of sin, F.>r the tempter,too, may woo theo. And thy feet may run therein. Al1 along life's ru.-g'd pathway Stones arc bruising weary feet: TbistL'S 'pring among tho (lowers Tares are growing with tho wheat. And the Master in His vineyard Hath a work for you to do, F ir the harvest there is plenteous, But the 1 borers there are few. Tarry not-the day is waning, And the night is coming cn, And the Master will reward you For the work thy hand hath dono. If from out o?;o bleeding bosom You hare flacked thc bitter thorn; If you'"e cheered the drooling spirit When i's every hope was gone; If you've strotchod the bund i.> kindness To lead erring, straying feet, There's a rich reward awaits yoa And love's labor, too, is sweet. If along life's rugged highway You hare raised a drooping flower ; If thy smile hath ever gladdened For one heart a gloomy hour It hath placed a star to glitter In tho angel crown abovo ? Ah ! life mi.-sion hero is holy, When we make it one of love! Oh! remember, then, thc crrir.g! Thou must lift the soul ?gain, A?J from s.>me poor, bleeding bosom, Wipe awjy thc guilty stain. All thc world is one broad vineyard Where there's work for each to do; For the harvest there is plenteous, But tho laborers are few ! Work, then-Life's sun is setting, And the ni^ht of Death comes on, And thc Master at his coming Will expect thy work well done! The Corruption of Ancient Pompeii. A correspondent of the Chicago Tri bune, who has lately been at the buried city in Italy, writes as follows: There is one matter in relation to Pom peii that is seldom touched on by writer?, and which I dare not touch too closely, to-wit: Thc horrible depravity ol thc Pompeians, as illustrated by the frescoes, sculptures and bronze statues th:it are found. Hundreds of these vile objects have been carried away to thc museums in Naples, and put in a room which no woman is allowed to visit: but there are still houses in Pompeii that arc kept lock ed, and others that have sue" sculptures over .he doors on the out se that the guides hurry past them when there are women in thc party. Even in private houses there are scores of frescoes magnificently executed, too-which one would dare to visit only in company with his nearest and dearest friends, if ladies, and in other houses pictures and statues than which none can imagine any thing worse. I cannot understand why tho writers on these matters have, been so anxious to conceal the faults of the an cients. lt is a fact that deserves to be generally known. Great God ! what a picture of canuption in imperial Rome is revealed to one who looks into Pom peii with anything like thoronghn.-ss. The very stone of the door-posts tells a tale more damnable than ever was in vented by moJern thought. .Sodom was clean, and Gomorrah was pure, compared with Pompeii. Where was ever a people on earth, before or since Pompeii, that "advertised the ways that lead down to hell" by sculptures placed in thc open light of the street ? " Out, damned spot !" cried the still infant genius of modern civilization and Christianity, as it looked in upon Pompeii, and Vesuvius responded to the command and sent his consuming fires to do the work. "1'r.i CAT.L AROUND AKD PAV."-What a world of wo is contained in these few words, to the poor artizan and mechanic ! "I'll call round and pay," says the rich man, to avoid the trouble of going to his desk to get the necessary funds, and the poor mechanic is obliged to go home to disappoint his workmen, and all who de pend upon him for their due. It is an *asy matter to work ; the only real glory in this life is an independent idea of being able to sustain yourself by thc labor of your own hands, and it may be easily imagined what crushing force there is in " I'll call around and pay," to the labor ing man who depends on that pay for subsistence. If those who could woul l pay at once, it would place hundreds and thousands in a condition to do likewise, and would prevent much misery and distress. A poor scamp left his wife in a great rage, declaring that she should never see his face again till he was rich enough to come home in a carriage. He kept his word, for in two hours afterward he was brought home drunk in a wheelbarrow. A hardened Sco'Vtsh soldier lay on his hospital bed, and refused stubbornly to listen to a word of spiritual counsel from the good minister who visited him. He " knew how to die without the aid of a priest," he said. The most affectionate entreaty seemed lost upon him, and he turned his face to the wall, determined to close the interview. Thc minister sat down by his bed, and began to sing a hymn well known in Scotland-" O mother dear, Jerusalem, when shall I come to thee ?" In a few moments the man turned himself upon his pillow, the hard look all gone, and the eye wet with a tear. "Who taught you that?" he asked. "My mother," said thc minister. "And so did mine," he replied; and with those memories surging back into his soul, he was ready and willing *o lis ten lo the words of heavenly counsel. MARINO AN? EXPENDING MONET. " Well, Jim, how did you make it down Soutn ?" "First-rate. Made plenty money." " What did you do with it ?" " Laid it out in houses and lots." " Where ?" M Every place I have been where there were any." " What kind of houses and lots ?" " Coffee-houses and lois of whiskey." A forty-day husband, on whom the memory of the honeymoon already seems to have become powerless, wants to know why his wife is like a small pie. Do you give it up ? Because she is now a litth tart. K Tom'Ta??e-Wss ?!e an Atheist or' a Heist : There arc some curious old documents stowed away iii the safes of the. Surrogate j Office of-this city. Glancing over the! pages of those ancient totnes, we yester day stunt bled upon "the lust will und; testament of Thomas Paine/-1 This will was recorded 19thof June, 1809. More than a half century had elapsed since the spirit of that bold explorer of the realms of metaphysics passed the mystic domain where he must meet the proofs or the refutation of his philosophy. The im pression has generally prevailed that '1 homos Paine was an atheist. We find in his last will and testament conclusive evidence thal such was not tho case. A few ex:rads will establish lin-fact, that he was aa earnest'belicvcr in the existence of an Otnnipitent Being, his Creator and his God. Thus says the will : " Reposing confidence in my Creator, God, and in no other Being, for I know of no other, nor believe in any other, 1, Thomas Paine, of ihc city of New York, author of the work entitled, ''Common Sense," written in Philadelphia in Janua ry, 1T7G, which awakened America to a declara!ion of Independence on the 4th of July following, which was, ns fast as the work spread through such an exten sive country. The American Crisis on Pence, " Rights of Man," '; Age of Ptea son." eec, &c." He becpiea?hs a legacy to " Margaret Bonnerville, in trust for her children, to bring them well up, give them good and useful learning, and in struct them in their duty to God, and thc practice of morality." As this will was recorded on the 19th of .Time, 1S09, five months after thc date of its execution, it may bc considered as thc testator's death-bed confession of re ligious faith. That he was not an atheist, or, at least, that at the eleventh hour he recognized the Supreme Being, is evident ; but his peculiar expressions in regard to his religious faith, and the absence of any allusion to the Saviour, suggest that he rejected thc doctrines of Christianity, and was what is termed a deist.- New York News. THE GOAT.-The goat is a numerous animal. Ile is found in many parts of the habitable glob?, and also in East Fe liciana. Ile is four footcder than a hen, and never shaves. Ile lets his board grow. He don't mind fences. Ile can reach over and nibble shrubbery. Ile bults-he chews rapid. His tail points upwarder than a cow's. Ile is exclusive. He beh>ng> io the hairy stockracy. He don't misccgenate. Fie wears his sum mer clothes ali winter, lie never squan ders fractional currency. Ile never reg istered. He don't neem to want to. He never takes in washing. Ile can't cipher. Ile don't care fur worms. Ile never slobbers. Ile is thrifty, lie stamps. I like a goat. For why ] I wears a GOAT EU.-Clinton Democrat. GlRLS.-'1 hore are two kinds nf girls. One is the kind that appears best abroad -the girls that arc good for parties, rides, visits. !>;i!ls, A;c. and whoso chief delight is in such thiogs. The other is the kind that appia's bett at home-thc <iirls that are cheerful and useful in the dining room, sick room, and al! thc precincts of home. They differ widely in character. One is often a torment at home ; thc otheroften a Mering. One is a moth, con suming everything about her ; the other is a sunbeam, inspiring light and gladness on all around her pathway. Thc right education will modify both a little, and thus unite the good qualities of both in one. Ax Arr SCHOLAR.-We have a boy at home about three years old, who. by the way, is a regular .. shaver' in Ins talk. Ono day we were trying to leach him his alphabet and asked him what "? stood for. '; George," was Iiis prompt answer. No " wc replied. " It stands fur boy." ': Well, ain't George a boy ?" he asked, triumphantly. LET THE TOAST CO POUND.-In a mixed company, a gentleman thought proper to make some remarks to the lady next to him (who happened to bc drinking toast and water,) so as to induce the ail ron ted damsel to take out thc loast and throw it in his face. Ile very coolly took it up and threw it in ihc face ot' tho person on the other side of him, saying, "Letthc toast go round." An old toper Aras heard the other day to advise a young mau to get married " because then, my boy, you'll have some body to pull off your boots when you go home drunk." " Did you know," said a cunning Yan kee to a Jew, that they hang Jews and jackasses together in Portland'.'" "Indeed!' retorted Solomon, "den it ?sh veli dat vou and I ish not dere." A BELIEVER.-Some time since a gen tleman died in the town of X, who, du ring his life, refused to believe in another world. Two or three weeks after his demise his wife received through a rncdi um a communication, which read as fol lows : " Dear Wife-J now believe. Picase send me my thin clothes." "Sal, what time do your folks dine?" " As soon as you goes, that's missus orders." PUBLI8UED EVERY WEDNESDAY MOKNINO B T DTJRISOE, KEESE & CO. TERMS OK SUBSCRIPTION. INVARIABLY IN ADVANCE.
